It's gotta be better than Angels 2....

Rating: 9/10 (21 May 2003)

I've just noticed that this is being released in the states simultaneously with Charlie's Angels 2... Now if there were any justice in the world this movie would post the $50 million opener, whilst Angels wandered off onto DVD after a week.
I went to see 28 Days Later on a whim last year and have to say it ranks as one of the best movies of last year, certainly outstripping the likes of Spider-Man, Star Wars and LOTR in terms of the rush it gave me. And it cost about a hundreth of either of those mentioned.
The simple twist that the 'Zombies' here are pretty fleet of foot adds to the tension, as does the classic horror notion of having a cast of relative unknowns - so you don't know who is gonna get zombiefied.
TI cant really do it justice here - just make sure it doesnt flop stateside.
